Mixed Reviews
July 18, 2023

I love the products Lightinthebox offers. However only two of the four items I purchased were correct. I purchased a long sleeve black shirt but received a long sleeve grey shirt my mail. I ordered a large short sleeve shirt but received a small shirt in the mail. I love the shirt but it's too small. The other two large short sleeve shirts were awesome and as advertised. I see a lot more merchandise I would love to purchase but I am not confident I will receive the correct order via mail. This should have easily been a 5 star rating.

Qualité en rapport avec le prix.
July 18, 2023

Durée de livraison respectée. Le produit est de qualité moyenne mais le rapport qualité/prix est bon. Le coût du transport est un peu cher. Dans l'ensemble cet achat est plutôt intéressant.

I placed multiple orders for mens clothing and what I got was junk. Cheap imitatations that were marketed to make them appear better than what they were. I literally threw the shirts away because I knew it would not be worth the effort to return. Several hundred dollars down the drain. On a seperate order I ordered mens pants -Only 1 pair of mens active pants were decent, all others cheap junk. Totally upset with my purchases, I should have known though- advertised on Facebook!

Disappointed
July 18, 2023

None of the purchased items fit. The size chart was of little use.
I am a size 20, so apparently I need a 6XL

Shoddy work
July 18, 2023

1 of the 3 shirts has a gaping hole where a seam was not sewed, nor successfully inspected.

Very disappointed. Very very disappointed.

I don't want to invest any time to return it, just done.

It's a wrap
July 18, 2023

I needed a sheer wrap to top off a beautiful dress and I ordered two different colors. I was concerned about receiving them in time and contacted the site after ordering. They were extremely responsive and accommodating. I received the order in plenty of time, and the wraps are perfect and I love them both.

There are some good quality items
July 18, 2023

I bought different items - some of the dresses were very good quality, others - not. Customer service is fast to reply and if the request is reasonable - they had satisfactory solution.

The sizing was the largest size, but it was on the tight side, so too small. In my experience, returns are not possible. I have been approached for a voucher. So far only responded to keep the purchase and accept a voucher. I want to return and get my money back. Which is quite normal for online shopping. If you want to deal in the Eu market that's the only way. Buy with the option of return and you will get your money back neatly. No big deal…!
